Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Dragged further away from the shore
And deeper into the drink

Sat on the bottom of the ocean
A stern and stubborn rock
Your songs remind me of swimming
But somehow I forgot

I was sinking, and now I´m sunk
I was drinking, and now I´m drunk
Your songs remind me of swimming
But somehow I forgot

I tried to remember the chorus
I can´t remember the verse
´Cause that song that sent me a´ swimming
Is now the life jacket that burst

Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor
Sinkin´ like a siren that can´t swim any more
Your songs remind me of swimming

But I can´t swim anymore

Pull me out the water, cold and blue
I open my eyes and see that it´s you
So I´ll dive straight back in the ocean
Yes I´ll dive straight back in the ocean

Take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest
Take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest
Then cross my fingers
And hope for the best

Then all of a sudden, I heard a note
It started in my chest, and ended in my throat, oh
Then I realised
Then I realised
Then I realised

I was swimming
Yes, I was swimming
And now I´m swimming
Yes, I am swimming

Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Oh, your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started
To sink
